Fit

Looks like I may go w the Fit. Looked at it today. I love the room and styling. Looking at Fit Sport. The Yaris is still delayed. Anyone know the ground clearance difference between the two cars?

I have totally loved this Forum. It's the discussion here that reopened the conversation on the Fit. I want to thank all of you for the info and encouragement. It's been a long 5 weeks. The board has been a great diversion. Toyota just needs to move those cars more quickly. It's not quite a done deal - but close.

I will post a photo. Totally not how I saw this going 5 weeks ago. That's life. Thanks again!

Welcome . The FIT has a little less ground clearance . It does well in snow . We use four Bridgestone BLIZZAK WS 60s that are studless snow tires . The Sport has a larger tire than the base model we have . Keep us updated if you get the FIT . Best of luck .

Seems like you're in a hurry to buy so it may not be worth mentioning, but you do realize the all new 2014 Fit is around the corner, right?

The current Fit is still a great car, but it is a 5 year old design.



I'm not sure whether I like the new one any better or not.

I got the Fit Saturday. Took it driving at the Black Canyon Ntl Park. Wow, very fun. Yaris still in Denver. It would be another week. It was time and the Fit is growing on me. Smooth shifting!

Grats on the new car! Shame you couldn't get your Yaris.

Congratulations. I have the fit but I always wanted the Yaris too. Especially the newer ones, since they are pretty safe. I might buy one one day as a long distance beater but keep the fit as a DD.
What color did you get? What was your OTD price?
